Chapter 9 Small Flags in the Army

Now Zhang Xiaoying is not wild at all in front of Lin Yi, docile and well-behaved, like a fart, wherever Lin Yi appears, she appears, except for sleeping at night, the rest of the time is almost inseparable.

There is such a pretty girl as a follower, waiting, in her words, to repay the favor, those soldiers and ruffians look greedy. Lin Yi, who was originally inconspicuous, has now become the focus of attention in the institute, or he is a blessing in disguise, and his popularity is comparable to that of officials such as the head of a hundred households and the general banner.

As soon as Lin Yi had eaten and returned to his house, Xiaoying ran over and shouted, "Brother Lin, I want to say hello to you!"

Lin Yi didn't feel anything about Xiaoying's heat, but he didn't hate her either, and because she was only 14 years old, Lin Yi treated her as a little sister.

"How can I be happy?" Lin Yi came out of the barracks and bumped into Xiao Ying's hot gaze, those grape-like eyes, revealing the luster of youth, Lin Yi didn't dare to look more and looked away.

"You're going to be promoted, little flag in the army." Xiao Ying flashed her big eyes and said with great interest, as if it was not Lin Yi who was promoted, but herself.

"Xiaoqi, how is that possible?" Lin Yi looked absent-minded.

Of course, Lin Yi knew what the small flag in the army was, which was equivalent to the squad leader or deputy squad leader in later generations, and he was in charge of ten people. This is the lowest position in the Ming Army, but Lin Yi doesn't think that he is small, he is better than the big head soldier, at least he can be an "official" for a while.

In the years of peace before the crossing, it was necessary to struggle for at least a year before it was possible. In troubled times, it is impossible to be promoted without military merit.

It's only been a few days since you crossed over? In addition to recuperating from illness, in the barracks, he picked up a few loads of water, and he didn't make any contributions, as for killing two Tartars, it was the previous owner of this body, and no one went to repay himself, even if he reported his merits, he didn't necessarily get promoted, it may be to get back some food and salary rewards, how could it be so easy to be promoted to a small flag? Lin Yi felt unlikely.

"It's true," Seeing that Lin Yi was a little unconvinced, Xiao Ying flashed her big eyes and shook her little head and said seriously, "Because you killed two Tartars and saved Miss Ben's life, my father decided to promote you, and he will let the general flag announce it soon." ”

It turned out to be the light of this girl's film, Lin Yi knew that it was true, but he was still not happy, not that he looked down on this little flag, but that he didn't like to take shortcuts, his self-expression ability and self-esteem were relatively strong, and he valued independent development.

Before the crossing, he looked down on those who did not learn and did not know how to do it, and relied on the shadow of his father and the aura of seven aunts, six uncles and eight aunts to be promoted and promoted.

"Brother Lin, I know, this is a small flag, I think you have made such a great contribution, you have to get a general flag or a deputy hundred households, but my father said that there is only one general flag here, and he can't help it. I have to wronged you first......"

Zhang Xiaoying looked at Lin Yi's disdainful look and pouted and explained.

You can't be too immodest, and you can't be ignorant of what is good or bad, so Lin Yi hurriedly said: "How can there be grievances, I am only a soldier, Xiaoqi can manage ten people, I am afraid that I will not be able to do it well."

"I believe that Brother Lin must be able to do a good job."

"Thank you, Xiaoying."

"Brother Lin, don't thank me, I haven't thanked you for saving your life, how about I add two more dishes to celebrate you tonight?"

As soon as Zhang Xiaoying's voice fell, four or five ran out of the house, Zhang Hua, He Tao, Li Qi, Erhu, Dongsheng, etc., all came around and shouted: "I want to celebrate Brother Lin at night, and me, and my ......."

This year, I came out to tuck my head into the waistband of my trousers and came to the barracks to mix, mostly to mix a round belly. As soon as they heard that the little beauty was going to celebrate Lin Yi, they came over to have fun.

"Go, go, what's the matter with you?" Zhang Xiaoying glanced at a few of them and said.

"Brother Lin has been promoted to a small flag in the army, we are all happy, we are all convinced, and we all support, how can we not celebrate, right, Brother Lin?"

For these ruffians and foodies, Lin Yi just laughed.

"Okay, since you are going to celebrate Brother Lin, right, this is a good thing, everyone can't come empty-handed, how about a tael of silver per person?" Zhang Xiaoying knew that these goods were deliberately stealing cheap, eating and drinking for nothing, and her eyes changed.

"One or two ......" grinned as soon as they heard that they would pay for it, "My eldest lady, we haven't paid for a few months, how can we have any money." ”

Lin Yi said with a smile: "Forget it, this matter will stop, the hundred households and the general banner don't know yet, these eight characters haven't been skimmed yet, what are you tossing around, they are all scattered, scattered."

As soon as Lin Yi's words fell, the horn of the assembly sounded, followed by Dawang's thick voice, "All assemble." ”

This is the third time that Lin Yi has come to this institute and gathered together. After Lin Yi and Zhang Hua stood in the designated position, Xiaoying also came over to watch the excitement.

After a long wait, more than 80 people from the whole office finally arrived again.

Zhang Baihu led the general flag Wang Jian to the scene, and Dawang brought a chair to Zhang Baihu. Zhang Baihu sat down on a chair, and the chair creaked.

General Banner Wang Jian began to roll call, and then Zhang Baihu glanced at Xiao Ying next to him and Lin Yi in the crowd, cleared his throat, and the crowd of whisperers fell silent.

Zhang Baihu first told Lin Yi's deeds, killed two Tartars, almost died, and after the injury was healed, he killed the poisonous snake to save Xiaoying, made great contributions, and was promoted to the small and medium-sized flag commander in the institute.

Now there are a total of ten small flag chiefs in the institute, and there are only seven small flag chiefs who are still in service except Lin Yi, and the posts are obviously insufficient, so even Lin Yi only divided six soldiers to Lin Yi, and after the list was announced, it was announced that it was disbanded.

Then Zhang Baihu said a few words to Wang Jian, then rode his horse and left the military station.

In the evening, Zhang Xiaoying really made four dishes, and brought two jars of wine to Lin Yi's barracks.

Zhang Hua, Li Qi, Erhu, Dongsheng, and He Tao all came over, put things on a small table, and then sat around.

Lin Yi invited Wang Jian, the chief flag commander, to sit down.

"Adult, adult......" Zhang Hua, Li Qi, Erhu, Dongsheng, and He Tao all stood up and bowed their hands.

Wang Jian also sat down politely, Lin Yi sat down next to each other, Xiaoying sat down next to Lin Yi, and then the others also sat down, seven men and one woman, eight people, surrounded by a circle, and they were full of Dengdeng.

Then everyone started drinking and eating, chatting while eating.

Zhang Hua, Li Qi, Erhu, Dongsheng, and He Tao have been flattering Lin Yi, and they are not apologizing, saying that there were misunderstandings and offending them before, so Lin Yi must not take it to heart, and they will expect to follow him in the future.

Lin Yi smiled, although he didn't get any big officials, but this feeling of being respected and touted was still good, standing up and thanking the hundred households for their love, thanking General Wang for their support and cultivation, thanking his brothers and sisters for their support, and thanking Xiaoying for this table of wine and food.

Xiao Ying blushed and poured wine and vegetables for Lin Yi, more diligent than the maidservant.

Lin Yi felt that after crossing over, the atmosphere was so harmonious for the first time, and everyone was like brothers-in-arms.

The conversation box was opened, and there were more words, and Lin Yi found that it was not difficult to communicate with these people, although they were usually more ruffian, but there were still shining points on their bodies, everyone had a story behind them, and some were very interesting, Lin Yi had a common language with them for a while.

The sea eats and drinks, the mountains shout, talk and laugh, as a person who crosses, he finds that he has fully integrated into this military camp, and in a few days, a person came to the world hundreds of years ago, and has fully adapted, as if he was born in this society naturally, which can be regarded as strong adaptability.

It wasn't until the two jars of wine were drunk and all the four dishes were liquidated that they dispersed.

Xiao Ying left Lin Yi's barracks and walked to her room, she was very happy, she found that tonight was her happiest night, she always had Lin Yi's voice and smile in her mind, this man who was a stranger a few days ago now has occupied her heart at some point.

Thinking about it, her heart couldn't help but jump, and her face turned red involuntarily. At this time, a pair of wicked eyes were staring at her in the darkness......
